The same censorship exists in Smash Melee as well. The enemy is called a Topi. The Japanese version has a Topi trophy that appears like a seal, but in the US and EU version the Topi trophy appears as a yeti-like thing.

@Potimarron Censorship in some regions, because during that period "seal clubbing" was a very sensitive and controversial topic.

I don't care what Nintendo says. That's a pterodactyl, not a condor.

Monolith are masters when making open-world games for Nintendo. I can only hold my breath with anticipation at what they can do with Switch 2.

Why? Who was asking for this? Pretty much no one. Not even the people on other consoles bought it, as it was completely ignored with middling reviews.

Like Star Wars Outlaws, Ubisoft only made it with the assumption they had a guarantee smash hit. Only to get a big dose of reality instead when there was no demand and the trailers made them appear dull.

To think we could've had Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltales Series on Switch. It was officially announced too, until Telltales went under and it's release assumed to be cancelled.

Then my month is ruined. Nothing ever good happens at the end of December. Nothing!

No surprises. Metroid Prime was never a healthy-seller in Japan. I did Expect Octopath 0 to sell a bit more, but HD-2D games are all beginning to look the same now.

Switch 2 units are really getting up in numbers, making me think how big a boost it'll get during the week before Christmas.

With Square-Enix out of the picture, I just want a return to classic Lara that has sass, class and a pure sense of adventure.

It's 60 fps!? Wow. Did not expect them to aim for that.

I disagree. It needs more hamsters!

I know a far better deal than that if anyone's interested.

Just meet me at night. In a secluded wooded area. Don't tell anyone where you are going or who you are meeting. Come alone. Look for a guy in a ski mask and holding a huge machette, to protect us both from stray velociraptors.

It's gonna be Lady Dimitrescu who miraculously survived to become one of the good guys and join the BSAA.

@Questionable_Duck You really misunderstood the sentence, didn't you...

Still on the fence on this. I love dark settings and themes, but the Japanese have really had me fed-up with the entire school setting trope.

Now, I'm kinda hoping this chracter will be this game's version of Resident Evil 4's Ashley Graham. And you got to escort him throughout the entire game.

"Samus! Help! Aliens!"

Dragon Quest XI made it on the list and not Dragon Quest V? Unacceptable! >_<

Nah. I actually prefer Metroid Pinball.

@Kingy Not once did I ever mention Arc Raiders. Nor am I even fully against AI.

What I'm trying to say TTS is an entirely different system from AI voices. So, using that as a comparison are used by people who don't know how TTS works at all.

Even I play with AI alot, by making little pictures that I like, but I will never call myself an artist, nor do I even share the pucs to anyone else.

@Kingy It doesn't need it because there are no set characters to voice. Every character is made specifically by the player and each player has different ideas on what voice they want.

@Kingy How was that a good point when they're genuinely asking what's the difference between TTS and AI voices? Which you also don't seem to know, because both are completely different systems.

Like saying soup and soda are exactly the same because you drink both.

@FrenchVaniIIuxe Been living under a rock for the past 20 years then?

Also, what made you think voice acting is limited to video games, when the AI was trained to take from all sources from the past 80 or more years.

@1UP-HUSKY
Fairly certain the hentai you're thinking about and the ones the Japanese love are none of these games. Calling these hentai is an insult to actual hentai.

Damn, Nintendo. Eleven pages of games that have the word "Hentai" on it.

Did these really need to be available for Switch 2 owners? Trash belongs in the trash.

I remember seeing ads for this game in gaming magazines. I though the title was so blunt and simple, it put me off the game, and I never realized til years later it was set in the old west. Like making a racing game and calling it "Race".

You guys didn't show Sakurai standing behind you, burning a hole through the back of your head as he silently judged your gameplay.

Chibi-Robo, obviously.

Though some of Nintendo's more mature titles like Metroid, Xenoblade and F-Zero could translate well into film.

Take their time. Build up each world and characters. Don't do what DC did and bungle everything up cause they were in a hurry to catch up with Marvel.

@Ainze We're talking about a Musou-style game, where attacks tend to be more violent and direct towards the enemy. Slow, tac-tics style feels less so, especially since nearly all attacks are projectiles from "not guns".

@somnambulance It'd be too violent for a Mario title, unless they make it really cartoony.

I give it a 3 out of 10. This is the worst Mario game I've ever played.

Octodad 2: Escape to Africa.

@Member_the_game oh, okay. According to the AI summary, the changes are to make them legally distinct. So, certain things may be hard to notice.

@Member_the_game I'll take your word for it. I know nothing about the sport aside from the names that are THAT big. I just read what the AI search gave to me as no other article could give a straight answer.

Can't wait to hear Vin Diesel as Rosalina and Benedict Cumberbatch as Yoshi.

@Kroko I assumed that was the case, but I decided to look into it. I learned that some players and teams are still present like Real Madrid and Messi. However, EA is only paying for names that they know will sell and are using fake names for teams, players and stadiums that aren't a priority. I didn't think that was something they can do.

@Pillowpants Might not be in a way we expect. Last I heard EA reported that it performed below expectations. I'm assuming from microtransactions due to lack of player names.

NA. Gives the idea of a pocket-sized world. Never realized both used the same picture except Japans' cut it in half and placed on opposite ends.

To think a little more time to wait until Metroid Prime 4. Just don't get hit by a stray lightning bolt or get ambushed by velociraptors til then.

Waiting for Sega to announce Danica Patrick and make her the worst racer in the game, because she has to follow the laws of physics.

Kinda lame. Happy Home Paradise added some unique furniture. Though it makes me think how many "new" players will the Switch 2 attract. I feel like most players are migrants from Switch 1.

I really like the idea of the resort hotel. The reveal has not made it clear yet, but it seems like hotel guests can leave and roam around the island like a resident which I like. It adds to the idea that the island is a lively place that many can go in and out of instead of just a bird cage.

Eager to see how much will change when Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D comes out, just like how Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D destroyed the charts upon release.

Nothing this week for me on Nintendo, cause I got Middle-Earth Shadow of War Definitive Edition for just $5.99. Not usually my type of game, but I heard some darn good things about it, and you'd be crazy to pass up on that price.

If any word other than "Woah!" comes out of Crash's mouth, then the show is an automatic 0/10.

McDonald's is the dojo where all the greatest martial artists go to train.

@RupeeClock
I was just about to mention the wing cap from Mario 64, but I take it they want the true and blue design.

To be fair, we all expected EA to get on the bus way sooner.

@1UP-HUSKY
Not as much as Anti-Matter will! >_<

There should be a mission based on the recent Close To You video. Where you have to bound and gag the mother so you can take the baby to outer space.
